G. Cooper and colleagues conducted detailed lake surveys of Maine lakes in the 1930s and 1940s. In addition to species lists, the fisheries data include relative abundance, food habits and age-growth. Other data generated [...] [ click to read more ]
Profundal chironomid communities were sampled in late winter. The chironomid data were used to assign a chironomid-based lake type to each of the study lakes, based on Saether's 1979 lake classification scheme, which defines a [...] [ click to read more ]
This study used a group 49 lakes with varying trophic state but which are geographically close and morphometrically similar to assess the use of the chironomid fauna as an alternative lake classification technique.
